A cube is a special case of rectangular cuboid in which the edges are equal in length. [1] Like other cuboids, every face of a cube has four vertices, each of which connects with three congruent lines. These edges form square faces, making the dihedral angle of a cube between every two adjacent squares being the interior angle of a square, 90 ...
In geometry, a 10-cube is a ten-dimensional hypercube. It has 1024 vertices, 5120 edges, 11520 square faces, 15360 cubic cells, 13440 tesseract 4-faces, 8064 5-cube 5-faces, 3360 6-cube 6-faces, 960 7-cube 7-faces, 180 8-cube 8-faces, and 20 9-cube 9-faces. It can be named by its Schläfli symbol {4,3 8}, being composed of 3 9-cubes around each ...
In geometry, a 6-cube is a six-dimensional hypercube with 64 vertices, 192 edges, 240 square faces, 160 cubic cells, 60 tesseract 4-faces, and 12 5-cube 5-faces. It has Schläfli symbol {4,3 4}, being composed of 3 5-cubes around each 4-face. It can be called a hexeract, a portmanteau of tesseract (the 4-cube) with hex for six (dimensions) in ...
The regular skew polyhedron {4,5| 4} can be realized within the 5-cube, with its 32 vertices, 80 edges, and 40 square faces, and the other 40 square faces of the 5-cube become square holes. This polytope is one of 31 uniform 5-polytopes generated from the regular 5-cube or 5-orthoplex.
The eight vertices of a cube have the coordinates (±1, ±1, ±1). The coordinates of the 12 additional vertices are (0, ±(1 + h), ±(1 − h 2)), (±(1 + h), ±(1 − h 2), 0) and (±(1 − h 2), 0, ±(1 + h)). h is the height of the wedge-shaped "roof" above the faces of that cube with edge length 2.
Etymologically, "cuboid" means "like a cube", in the sense of a convex solid which can be transformed into a cube (by adjusting the lengths of its edges and the angles between its adjacent faces). A cuboid is a convex polyhedron whose polyhedral graph is the same as that of a cube. [1] [2] General cuboids have many different types.
A cube, for example, is a regular hexahedron with all its faces square, and three squares around each vertex. There are seven topologically distinct convex hexahedra, [1] one of which exists in two mirror image forms. Additional non-convex hexahedra exist, with their number depending on how polyhedra are defined.
A cuboctahedron has 12 identical vertices, with 2 triangles and 2 squares meeting at each, and 24 identical edges, each separating a triangle from a square. As such, it is a quasiregular polyhedron , i.e., an Archimedean solid that is not only vertex-transitive but also edge-transitive . [ 1 ]
